Date men and women from United States / Alabama / Oxford, 60 year old

Date men and women from Alabama, United States. I consider myself an easy going kind of guy. I have been known to get on my soapbox from time to time, but it is seldom. I am retired. I worked for Uncle Sam and enjoy being away from the chaos, but I may go back to work one day if I find something interesting.
I have no children, but do have a dachshund.
I'm blue jeans and old rock and roll, lean to the conservative side. I prefer a medium rare porter house steak, but can eat those little cucumber sandwiches if I close my eyes and hold my breath before taking a bite. I'm a fair cook, but nothing fancy.
For me the most important qualities of a lady is intelligence, a good sense of humor, and honesty. I'm not saying she should be a rocket scientist but maybe have some knowledge of what goes on in the world. I am not primarily interested in finding someone to marry, but I would love to find the lady who would make me want to live forever.
Anyway, for you ladies who like your guys a little lighter you may want to check back later, after I get closer to a Brad Pitt body. I need to lose more than a few pounds as I have the will power of a three-year-old.
